Death Metal

[morguelord]

I never buy digital. If I wanted a digital copy, I'd just steal it. If I want to listen to something, I buy the CD, at least when it comes to death metal. I'm actually planning on getting a longsleeve/CD combo on friday once I get paid. DD is having a sale right now, so I'll probably pick up a couple more CDs while I'm there.

I don't buy many physical releases anymore unless it's something that blows my bollocks off

Same. If I buy now it's to rebuy something I sold off years ago or to fill gaps in collections of favorite bands. I haven't bought any new vinyl in a year I think.

The only music related type stuff i need now are longsleeves which I am lacking. I found a Nile one on sale an an Obituary one and now I have like 6 but it's still not enough for how long fall and winter are (or seem) here

I mostly buy digital because I figure at least the band is directly (in most cases) getting the money, it's permanently stored on my Bandcamp account and I can use that to keep track of what I eventually want to buy a physical copy of. I still buy CDs of things I really want but I feel digital purchases are a good compromise for someone who doesn't have the space or desire to spend retarded amounts of money on shipping but also doesn't want to be a rip-off cunt.

That's fair. Ideally I would like physical copies of everything I like but it is not possible.

I’m still buying everything I want within reason. Advantages of not reproducing and whatnot. I’ve been buying a lot of used stuff lately on discogs.

 

[CiG]

Yeah used stuff is usually the best way to go. Lately I've been waiting until the end of every year before I buy anything physical so I have lists of shit that are tried and true and worth buying. Shipping to Australia is probably the biggest killer for me though.

God damn this rules.

Cool interview with Regurgitation talking about brutal death and slam bands and just general early scene shit.

Brian Baxter is such a cool fucking dude. Dude is seriously a giant in the underground and people don't realize it. He's played in so many bands it's not even funny, ran a label, and ran the old Ohio Deathfests, which is the whole reason MDF exists today. Super nice guy, too, all those Ohio dudes are. And speaking of Regurg, I have a Tales... longsleeve coming in the mail eventually. What a fucking sick album that is! I'm hoping they play Vegas instead of just MDF like they have slated so far. I have zero intentions of going to that.

Reported for spam and self promotion in the wrong thread. Die faggot, no one cares about your shit.

On a more relevant note, I went and saw Masacre (the Colombian one) and Viogression in Chicago this past weekend. Pretty sick show,, didn't get as much merch as I wanted though. Anyway, I remember someone telling me both of these bands sounded like Demilich, so I decided to check them out on my way home and I was definitely not disappointed. Really neat stuff!!

 

[Krow]

I wonder why that Exlimitir has never been physically released yet.

 

[The Ozzman]

Viogression is here end of October. Should be a good time.

 

[Manic Ferocity]

Mega-underrated Swedish death metal.

 

[morguelord]

Got these in the mail with my Hyperdontia order from Dark Descent yesterday.

 

[CiG]

Shredded Corpse exploded my penis, that was fucking amazing.

 

[The Ozzman]

Sounds like basement death metal to me. No thanks.

"Basement Death Metal"

Good stuff. Might have to start spreading that term. Royalties will be directly deposited to the Ozzman of course!

Wimp.
